Dolly Parton & Carl Thomas Dean

Dolly Parton & Carl Thomas DeanWell, this couple proves that being in an open relationship can come up pretty well and does not always lead to complications. The reason is that they have managed to stay together for 50 years and are still continuing to do so. Dolly, in her book Dolly on Dolly: Interviews and Encounters with Dolly Parton (Musicians in Their Own Words) said,“We’re so totally open and free … I always call him Daddy and he calls me Mama or Little Kid or Angel Cakes.” Still, she cannot shy away from the fact of trying to commit suicide after her heart was broken by a lover.
